Prestashop changed my URL's to "home" category after update

Hi guys.

I just finished updating my store from 1.4.x to 1.5.3.1 and I noticed that in the latest versions of Prestashop, the team has changed the way the URL's works for the products that are using the Home Category.

 

Ofcourse this is a huge problem for us because of having a store for many years means that we got a lot of incoming links to some of our products. If suddenly the URL change, this is negative for our SEO even if a 301 Redirect is possible to mitigate some of the damages.

 

In old Prestashop the URL's to normal products were displayed as store.com/category/id-product/ however all Products that was located in Home Category was using store.com/id-product/.

 

In the lastest version of Prestashop, products in the Home Category is now using store.com/home/id-product/.

 

How do I revert this to the old way? I still want to keep /category/ for all other products. But the ones in Home I need to be displayed in the same way as before.

 

This is not the first time that we've had SEO issues with Prestashop updates. If a team member reads this, I would like you to take these things into considerations when doing updates in the future.
